What Is Included In This Thanksgiving Dinner?

In Montana, that Thanksgiving dinner to feed 12 will cost around $74.38. That's just your bare-bone-basic dinner with no appetizers or pumpkin anything. Not even a pumpkin air spray to fool everyone into thinking a pie is coming.
How Big Are The Differences Per State?
Comparing the most expensive state, Hawaii with a whopping price of $96.77, and the cheapest state is Georgia at $70.39, that's a big difference. Over $26. With that savings, Georgia can have a nice veggie plate, some deviled eggs and a pumpkin pie, too.
